batter interference?
R2, no outs, batter swings and misses and then falls across the plate. the catcher had come out of his crouch as he was going to throw down to 2nd in an attempt to pick off R2. F2 starts to throw but his hand hits the back of the batter's helmet and the ball bounces a few feet away. do we have interfereence on a pick-off play such as this.
do you need to judge whether or not F2 had a legimate shot to pick off the runner? or is the batter out on interference even if R2 could have easily returned to his base.
